READING AND WRITING SKILLS Reading and Writing Connections CHAPTER 1 READING WRITING READING According to Lapp and Flood (1978), - It is a decoding process. - It is a comprehension process. WORD RECOGNITION COMPREHENSION FLUENCY WHY DO WE READ? To develop a broad background To anticipate and predict To create motivation To build a good vocabulary For pleasure and enjoyment BENEFITS OF READING It exposes readers to accurate spelling and correct form of writing It shows readers how to write more complex sentences It invites reader to be more experimental in their own writing It allows readers to hear the thoughts of others WRITING It is a method of representing language in visual or tactile form. It is a system of graphic symbols that can be used to convey meaning. EXPRESS INFORM ENTERTAIN WHY DO WE WRITE? EXPLAIN EXPLORE AND LEARN PERSUADE DESCRIBE SOLVE PROBLEMS BENEFITS OF WRITING It allows writers to voice their thoughts It provides writers vehicles to use their imaginations It gives writers a chance to engage in a conversation with other writers It aids writers in reading critically of others It motivates writers to engage with the text they are reading Written Text as a Connected Discourse LESSON 1 It is the study of sound patterns that occur within languages. It is the smallest unit of speech. Phonology Phoneme Text Discourse any piece of extended language, written or spoken, that has unity and Morpheme meaning and purpose. a speech sound Phone A short segment of language that meets three represented with phonetic basic criteria: symbols - It is a word or a part of a word that has meaning. - It cannot be divided into smaller meaningful Allophone segments without changing its meaning or leaving a meaningless remainder. - It has relatively the same stable meaning in different verbal environments. a variety of a phoneme Morpheme - A word or part of word that has a meaning. A root word. (a) Bases or roots Ex: Womanly ▪ Affixes – added to a root word to change its meaning. 1.Prefix – added to a front of root word.(in, dis, re, un) Ex: Incapable, Dislike, Unknown 2. Suffix – added to a back of root word. (ed, ing, ly, es) Ex: Laughing, Wanting, Foxes) Phonology - The study of sound patterns, their meaning, and how they form speech or words. - Identifying rhymes, counting numbers of syllables, or recognizing alliteration. - *Alliteration – repetition of usually initial consonant - Ex: Wild and wooly Phoneme - Smallest phonetic unit in language that are capable of conveying meaning. Phoneme - stated in our minds but we don’t pronounce it yet - Represents with slash (/) Ex: Mat - /m/ /a/ /t/ Ring - /r/ /i/ /n/ /g/ Sing - /s/ /i/ /n/ /g/ Allophone - A variant of phoneme - Written with brackets - A kind of phoneme that changes its sound base on how word spelled. Ex: ▪ Pen – P with aspirated ▪ Spin – [P] ▪ Stop – [p’] Connected speech or Connected discourse In Linguistics, it is a continuous sequence of sounds forming utterances of conversations in spoken language. its analysis shows sound changes affecting linguistic units: phrases, words, lexemes, morphemes, syllables, phonemes or phones. Word Recognition in Connected Speech Ifwordswereprintedwithoutspaceb etweenthemtheywouldbeprettyto ughtoread. Deletion of Sounds in Connected Speech Ex: - the sound /t/ from the words “want to” “I don’t ‘wanna’ go with anybody.” NOTE: The symbol ‘’ represents a very weak sound. Ex: Bus + t = Bust Bust – s = But Pragmatics in a Discourse Pragmatics is concerned with our understanding of language in context. Two kinds of context: 1. Linguistic context - the context within the discourse, focusing on the relationship between the words, phrases, sentences and even paragraphs. 2. Situational context – everything nonlinguistic in the environment of the speaker.
